Jesus the Jebwalk i just took was much more serious. It's cold as shit. And I'm walking around a neighborhood of people who are in bed and have no idea what is coming for them. Just brutal out...

What happened to this image? Why are some spots of it erased?

[clskinsfan]

Period are still posting the models.:) fuck the models. Go out and experience it.

[stormtracker]

Pretty sure i got an inch

[CatoctinRN]

Coming down pretty good in Westminster now 

[poolz1]

It's perfect outside but brutal. Mod snow 13/7  Maybe a half inch so far but starting to really come down now.

[CatoctinRN]

It has that super cold snow crunch

[Ltrain]

18/13 about 0.75" of snow so far.

Severna Park.

[clskinsfan]

Just humongous flakes falling right now. We are fucking pummel6

[jayyy]

Apple Weather still has 12-15. Does anyone know what model they could possibly be pulling from?

It pulls its data from the NBW model. The national blend of weenies

The Spire? Or Cras? 

It's pulling from something that has an AS, that's for sure

Burst of huge dendrites in the past couple minutes, which means I’m just miles away from sleet. Measured 2.0 on the dot so I did beat out the NAM by .1. I’ll see you all on the other side. 

[clskinsfan]

I gotta sleep so I can get up to see the real show. But so far this is insan.  Night ya'll 

[stormtracker]

I'm trying to stay up at least until the changeover in 5 minutes.

That’s what she said.

Hope you see many more, would bode well for me in South Jersey near Philly.

If I’m reading the CC correctly, sleet line just out of Charlottesville.

Just popped up.

 

[clskinsfan]

OMG we are getting destroyed right n5

Can confirm. Switched to sleet/snow in the past 5 minutes. Successfully stayed up for the sleet line.

Temp: 16.3

DewPoint: 12.6

Barometer: 30.54 (falling)

Humidity: 85%

Moderate Snow - 1/2 inch so far

[EHoffman]

Straight up unimpressive in the last hour.  Radar kinda looks like shit too and that sleet line is racing.  We really need to improve and fast.

[LeesburgWx]

Just woke up. Coating of snow outside but nothing falling. Where is the snow?

At this point, a debacle would be low key hilarious.   I'm up regardless. Me and the bf lit af.  He thinks we are all weirdos and laughs at me talking about dendrites, rates and models.   He just went out on the covered patio to smoke and shaking his head.

You wanna talk about a debacle? Western NC is getting dryslotted while they were forecasted a world altering ice storm. Ofc it’s good for them that happened but gonna be some unhappy people.

16/13, -SN, 1"

[EHoffman]

It kind of looks like we're just sitting in a subsidence zone from this huge band through Ohio and PA.  Kinda tucks down into Winchester too so makes sense why clskinsfan is talking about getting crushed.
